The Avery Architectural and Fine Arts Library, located in Avery Hall, collects books and periodicals in architecture, historic preservation, art history, painting, sculpture, graphic arts, decorative arts, city planning, real estate, and archaeology. It is the largest library of architecture in the US, with more than 400,000 volumes, most of which are non-circulating.
Its reading rooms are very quiet. There's a strict prohibition against food and drinks here that's more stringently enforced than in other libraries, but there's a cafe in the basement called Brownie's.
The library rarely has any room on the top floor, but cubicles and large tables can be found on the lower levels. You can sneek into the architecture library, although it closes early.
